Recent statistics of the World Health Organization (WHO), published in October 2017,
estimate that more than 253 million people worldwide suffer from visual impairment (VI) with …

In this paper, we introduce a real-time face recognition (and announcement) system targeted
at aiding the blind and low-vision people. The system uses a Microsoft Kinect sensor as a …

Near-infrared (NIR) face recognition has attracted increasing attention because of its
advantage of illumination invariance. However, traditional face recognition methods based …

Face representation learning solutions have recently achieved great success for various
applications such as verification and identification. However, face recognition approaches …

In this paper, we introduce the DEEP-SEE FACE framework, an assistive device designed to
improve cognition, interaction, and communication of visually impaired (VI) people in social …

With recent advances in RGB-D sensing technologies as well as improvements in machine
learning and fusion techniques, RGB-D facial recognition has become an active area of …

Three-dimensional (3D) shape information is valuable for fruit quality evaluation. Grading of
the fruits is one of the important postharvest tasks that the fruit processing agro-industries do …

This article reports the diffractive optical elements of rotational offset microlens arrays for
generating highly efficient structured light patterns in active stereoscopic 3D imaging. The …

Face Anti-spoofing (FAS) is a challenging problem due to complex serving scenarios and
diverse face presentation attack patterns. Especially when captured images are low …

Abstract We present the Teacher-Student Generative Adversarial Network (TS-GAN) to
generate depth images from single RGB images in order to boost the performance of face …
